Mechanism of action

  • CPT2 inhibitor

    It inhibits the mitochondrial enzyme carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT-1) and to a lesser extent CPT-2. This causes a shift in myocardial substrate utilisation from long chain fatty acids to carbohydrates, resulting in increased glucose and lactate utilization and increased ATP production for the same O2 consumption as before and consequently increases myocardial efficiency. Perhexiline maleate was also found to inhibit the activity of Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1).

    It inhibits rat heart and liver carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) (IC50 = 77 and 148 µM, respectively) and rat heart CPT2 (IC50 = 79 µM). It reversibly inhibits Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) at micromolar concentrations.

  • CPT1B inhibitor

    It inhibits the mitochondrial enzyme carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT-1) and to a lesser extent CPT-2. This causes a shift in myocardial substrate utilisation from long chain fatty acids to carbohydrates, resulting in increased glucose and lactate utilization and increased ATP production for the same O2 consumption as before and consequently increases myocardial efficiency.

  • MTOR inhibitor
